Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- 1 small onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
- 1 small carrot, peeled, chopped
- 1 stalk lemongrass, coarsely chopped and pounded with meat mallet to flatten slightly
- 1 1-inch piece unpeeled fresh ginger, thinly sliced
- 1 small Granny Smith apple, peeled, finely chopped (about 1 cup)
- 2 tablespoons curry powder (preferably Madras)
- 2 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 2 cups fresh carrot juice
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, carrot, lemongrass, and ginger; sauté until slightly softened but not brown, about 5 minutes. Add apple and curry powder; sauté until vegetables are tender, about 8 minutes. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil, then flour and stir 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually pour in carrot juice; bring to boil, whisking constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered until sauce is slightly thickened and reduced to generous 2 1/2 cups, about 20 minutes. Strain sauce through fine strainer set over bowl, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible; discard solids in strainer. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. DO AHEAD: Curry sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cool slightly. Cover; chill. Rewarm before using.
